Period Queries.

I am on my period, and today after taking out my tampon, I found white stuff on the bottom of my tampon, It wasn t discharge, it wasn t mixed with blood, it basically looked like the white of a hard boiled egg. It had bloody bits attatched to it. This has never happened before?

Hello.
Welcome to healthcaremagic forum.
The white tissue you saw on your tampoon was just a piece of old shed endometrium. It is normal as during every period whole of the endometrial layer is shed off and a new one grows during the month.
